The Executive Branch of Federal Government
By: Dirck, Brian
Published by: ABC-Clio

How has the role of the president changed since George Washington? How does the president interact with Congress? The courts? The states? Other nations? These are just a few of the overarching questions addressed in this volume in ABC-CLIOís About Federal Government set devoted to the president and the executive branch he manages.||The Executive Branch of the Federal Government provides a brief history of the presidency, then looks at the constitutional powers of the office, the day-to-day functions of the federal bureaucracy, general elections, and presidential relationships with Congress and the courts.

Feeling Your Pain
By: Bovard, James
Published by: Palgrave Macmillan

James Bovard is no fan of Big Government and under the last administration it grew unhindered. In "feeling your pain", Bovard looks back at the Clinton-Gore record on such abuses and absurdities as taxes, gun control, the Waco fiasco, Americorps, and federal funding of everything from programs dealing with disaster relief to puppet shows in Northern California. He looks at Hillary Clinton and her new role as New York's Senator Clinton. He also provides a fitting coda to the last eight years as he looks at the pardons, protections, and downright nincom-poopery of Clinton's last days. In the style that made Lost Rights a classic, Bovard sums up Clinton's presidency in a book that belongs on every American's bookshelf. more...
